Despite the successes and progress made in 2025, the year remains a missed opportunity for ammonia energy. The first complete supply chains for renewable ammonia are emerging, and some 600,000 tons of annual production capacity is set to be online in northeast China early next year. Maritime engines, cracking, and power & heat technology solutions also made their mark, moving from feasibility into deployment. But disappointing outcomes at the IMO and government support that failed to spark market development remains an issue, with plenty of critical, detail-heavy work ahead of us in 2026.

GreenGo Energy and SELECT Energy have signed a strategic partnership to develop a 4 million tons per year renewable ammonia project near Mauritania’s capital Nouakchott. The Mauritanian government has also reached a framework agreement with German developer Möhring Energie for the development of project NAYRAH, which will produce about 400,000 tons per year of renewable ammonia. This follows the government’s launch of its national “Green Hydrogen Code” in October this year.

Presentation

In April 2025, the partners made a final investment decision and agreed to a joint venture structure for the Blue Point mega-project in Louisiana: a $4 billion facility which will have a nameplate production capacity of around 1.4 million tons of CCS-based ammonia per year. Topsoe will provide its SynCOR Ammonia™ process (including autothermal technology and ammonia synthesis loop) for the project. Explore the journey to date for one of the world’s leading transitional ammonia production projects, and how all the partners have aligned for operations to commence in 2029.

Presentation

The region is a hotbed of activity in the decarbonized ammonia and energy transition space, with project developers looking to leverage existing infrastructure, expertise and an experienced local workforce. This conversation features a number of organizations at the forefront of this regional movement. Join us on our opening afternoon to hear what makes the region an attractive prospect for developers, what local alliances & groups are doing to help streamline project development, and what future role Southeastern Texas and the wider Gulf Coast region can play as we move towards lower-carbon ammonia production.
